Currently, the output of `describe-mode' includes the (fn...) calling
convention specifiers from the docstrings of major and minor modes.

Assuming that's not intended, here's a patch to fix it.

OK to install?

We generally avoid using abbreviations in function names, I think.
Otherwise, makes sense to me.

Yes, though w/o is used in two function names in uniquify.el.

I'll change it to help--doc-without-fn.
